Visited on a Friday evening with Adnielsen and my wife. Large, sweeping compound kind of feeling.Tons of indoor and outdoor seating.Their way of doing things was a new experience for me...checking IDs/stamping hands and taking orders at a register and then picking up orders around the corner. Seemed a little confusing/chaotic. But we got our orders no problem. Great selection of beers, lots of options for flights.And flight information is nicely displayed.
They had a food truck on premises that served up decent wings. Overall an enjoyable experience.

Odell’s facility is a gorgeous, large, spacious building with a beautiful outdoor area to boot. This place can get busy in a hurry but it was easily tolerable on a Wednesday afternoon. They take beer orders at one station and pour them and set them out for pick up at a different station. This takes away a little from the bar atmosphere, but this is the more efficient way to get people beer and that’s very important considering the sheer volume they do here. The beer list is pretty expansive with a couple brewery-only beers. Prices are $5 a pint for the regular type stuff and up to $8 for high alcohol/limited release pints. Weird they’re serving an imperial stout in a pint, but it’s still a fair price for that. Nearly everything Odell makes is insanely delicious so, they get big bonus points for that. I was thrilled just to have St. Lupulin and Myrcenary straight from the source. A food truck parks outside for some convenient grub. Odell is making some of the best American styled beers in the state and they have one of the best facilities to visit as well.

We were there for lunch on the Sunday before Memorial Day and the place was busy. There was still some seating available, but the line for ordering was ridiculous. Had a taster which contained almost all good beers for a very reasonable price. I also had a sandwich from the food truck, which was ok. I would have liked to get some more beer, but the line had grown all the way to the parking lot and I gave up.

A stunning huge location with multiple indoor and outdoor seating areas. Service was lacking as their system is more production line. Tons of beers, some brewery only, but nothing really good. A decent place but not up to the hype.

Visited April 6, 2014.Got there on an arranged bus ride. Seems to be parking available.Had some samples of a range of single hopped beers. Also had a nice tour of the brewery with plenty of information. Sat down with one of the brewers and had a really good time. A place I certainly wouldn’t mind going back to!

Very modern and fun ambiance, often live music. Service is quick and great with their beer knowledge. All of their current beers and then some are always on tap, usually try something new everytime I go. Little bit pricey for a brewery, especially growlers ($15 or more seems like). Overall, very nice, great beer, wonderful people. Only negative is how non-creative their tour is (only one drink, first come first serve basis). An absolute must for Fort Collins.

The second of the breweries we went to. Nice atmosphere. Not too busy, even for a Friday. Large parking lot. Tons of their beers on tap, including some experimental stuff. Had a fantastic sour ale on tap. Lots of their bottles available as well, but they have to be drank on premise. They had food but we didn’t partake. Two different sampler flights of beers available. Absolutely worth a stop.

Visited: 10-11-13 (during GABF Week)
Ambiance: The place is huge from the exterior with good landscaping and a nice deck. The interior is a good size with nice wood and decent room
Service: The place was jam packed when we arrived and I instantly wanted to leave. Thankfully, my buddy convinced me to stay and was amazed by how efficient they were. Basically the line was to order beers, pay then you went around the bar to pick up your beers.
Selection: They had 3 different pre-determined flights and roughly 16 beers available for pint purchases.
Value: The prices of the pints and flights were reasonable
Overall: It was great to finally get out there and would be nice to visit when it wasn’t crowded but the beers wouldn’t drag me back anytime soon

Was a small craft brewery and now big… and getting bigger. Producing 45,000 barrels with over 60 employees it is still technically a craft brewery, but really has gone corporate, losing the geniality, spontaneity and creativity that made them famous. Good clean beers, but the limited taproom hours, early last call with a fast bar time clock, made it impossible to taste all of the special release beers.
Since Fort Collins has so many outstanding real craft breweries to visit, I would skip Odell’s.

First stop of the day on the Ft. Collins brewery extravaganza. Huge location that is just getting huger. Maybe 15 different beers on tap, all available by the glass. They have three different taster sets pre-determined which would be annoying if you were a frequent visitor. Lots of seating inside and out. Friendly service, and tons of beer to choose from. Anyway...really beautiful building and properly. Very well done all around.
